BACKGROUND Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to an optical imaging system and an imaging apparatus, and more particularly, to an optical imaging system and an imaging apparatus applicable to electronic devices.

Description of Related Art

With the rapid developments in technology, various electronic devices equipped with multifunction have become a trend in development. At the mean time, requirements of shooting quality become even higher for wider application ranges, such as electronic devices equipped with both macro shooting and telephoto functions.

As a result, using one single shooting module is hard to meet the requirements concurrently. Therefore, electronic devices such as smart phones using shooting modules with dual lens or multiple lenses become the mainstream of development now. For example, a wide angle lens can be used with a small angle telephoto lens or multiple lenses with similar view angle collaborate with each other.

Due to the booming development of portable devices, the requirements of miniaturized shooting modules are also increased. Conventional small angle telephoto lens usually requires a larger electronic image sensor to maintain high imaging quality, thus a lens with larger outer diameter being required, but that contradicts with the requirements of miniaturization. Therefore, a miniaturized small angle telephoto lens with high imaging quality is desired.

According to the optical imaging system of the present disclosure, the definition of the inflection point is the transition point where the curvature centers along the curve of the lens element surface from the optical axis to a peripheral region transit from an object side to an image side (or from an image side to an object side). The definition of the critical point is a point on the surface of the lens element where the tangential plane of the point is perpendicular to the optical axis.

According to the optical imaging system of the present disclosure, the lens elements thereof can be made of glass or plastic material. When the lens elements are made of glass material, the distribution of the refractive power of the optical imaging system may be more flexible to design. When the lens elements are made of plastic material, the manufacturing cost can be effectively reduced. Furthermore, surfaces of each lens element can be arranged to be aspheric (ASP). Since these aspheric surfaces can be easily formed into shapes other than spherical shapes so as to have more controllable variables for eliminating aberrations and to further decrease the required quantity of lens elements, the total track length of the optical imaging system can be effectively reduced.

According to the optical imaging system of the present disclosure, an aperture stop can be configured as a front stop or a middle stop. A front stop disposed between an imaged object and the first lens element can provide a longer distance between the exit pupil and the image surface so that there is a telecentric effect for improving the image-sensing efficiency of an image sensor, such as a CCD or CMOS sensor. A middle stop disposed between the first lens element and the image surface is favorable for enlarging the field of view, thereby providing the optical imaging system with the advantage of a wide-angle lens.

According to the optical imaging system of the present disclosure, when the lens element has a convex surface and the region of convex shape is not defined, it indicates that the surface can be convex in the paraxial region thereof. When the lens element has a concave surface and the region of concave shape is not defined, it indicates that the surface can be concave in the paraxial region thereof. Likewise, when the region of refractive power or focal length of a lens element is not defined, it indicates that the region of refractive power or focal length of the lens element can be in the paraxial region thereof.

According to the optical imaging system of the present disclosure, the image surface of the optical imaging system, based on the corresponding image sensor, can be a plane or a curved surface with an arbitrary curvature, especially a curved surface being concave facing towards the object side.

According to the above description of the present disclosure, the following 1st-17th specific embodiments are provided for further explanation.

15th Embodiment

FIG. 17A is a 3-dimensional schematic view of an imaging apparatus 10 a according to the 15th embodiment. In the present embodiment, the imaging apparatus 10 a is a camera module. The imaging apparatus 10 a includes an image lens 11 a, a driving device 12 a, and an image sensor 13 a. The image lens 11 a includes the optical imaging system of the 3th embodiment described above (the reflective component 390 is disposed at the object side of the image lens 11 a), and a lens barrel (not otherwise herein labeled) for carrying the optical imaging system. The imaging apparatus 10 a retrieves the light and renders an image by using the image lens 11 a, using the driving device 12 a to adjust the focus to make the object 30 (Please refer to FIG. 18B) imaged on the image sensor 13 a, and outputs the image data thereafter.

The driving device 12 a may be an auto-focus model that can be driven by a voice coil motor (VCM), a micro electro-mechanical system (MEMS), a piezoelectric system, shape memory metal and other driving systems. The driving device 12 a allows the image lens 11 a to obtain a better imaging position, providing a clear image wherever an object 30 (Please refer to FIG. 18B) being positioned with different object distances.

The imaging apparatus 10 a may be configured to equip an image sensor 13 a (e.g., CMOS, CCD) with high sensitivity and low noise on the image surface of the optical imaging system to truly provide the satisfactory image quality obtained from the optical imaging system.

In addition, the imaging apparatus 10 a may further include an image stabilizer 14 a, which may be a dynamic sensing element such as accelerometer, a gyroscope or a Hall effect sensor. The image stabilizer 14 a in the 15th embodiment is a gyroscope but not limited. By adjusting the optical imaging system in different axial directions to provide a compensation for the blurred image due to shaking in a shooting moment, the image quality under dynamic and low-light scenes can further be improved and the enhanced image compensation function such as optical image stabilization (OIS) or electronic image stabilization (EIS) can also be provided.
